Let’s Play Blue Planet – Entry 5 – Tipping the Scales

CRAP! LASERS!

Welcome back to Blue Planet my friends! In this entry, my character, Samuel Bei, makes some VERY drastic decisions that change the course and nature of the game, and I’m not saying any more than that. Overall, this mod is a monumental achievement. You can tell that an enormous amount of care, love, thought and effort has been put into this from the folks that created it, and it shows in every mission. The story is fascinating, the mysteries are revealed slowly and naturally, the gameplay is VERY true to Freespace 2 (in that it’s both exhilarating and frustrating at times) and what they’ve managed to accomplish with the Freespace Open engine is nothing short of extraordinary. This is a MUST PLAY for fans and veterans of Freespace 2, bar none. The fact that this is FREE makes it even better. Please, my friends, go get this now, you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for watching this series, and I’ll see you next week!
